This is one of my favorite recurring jokes in all of Ivalice.

My Little Carrot

Has anyone seen my Carrot?

Please find my darling pet. She has been missing for a number of days, and I am beside myself with worry. I will reward anyone who finds her.

Walter giving himself a pep talk:

The It's Always Sunny meme of Mac saying "Well, first of all, through God all things are possible, so jot that down," except it's a Final Fantasy Tactics orator and he's saying "Faram" instead of "God."

I also love that orators are able to use their abilities on themselves. Walter just made himself more religious.

Case in point: I spent most of last night building a monk/dragoon, whose job it is to descend from the fucking sky with nothing but her bare fists.

I love this game.

Here's a GIF of the loading icon because at this point I'm doing everything with this game except actually play it (and I'm having a great time).

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Yes yes, Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt" is truly one for the ages, but his cover of Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage" is easily one of the coolest songs in his entire discography.

One cool feature of Steam is they provide a Harassment Zone for each game you announce. It's a place for people who hate progress to come and crap all over games they haven't even played. No, they won't help you moderate it, but hey, at least you can't delete it!

"Chocobos CAN believe in Monster Jesus" is an incredible thing to hear before I'm fully caffeinated

In Final Fantasy Tactics if a unit gains too much faith they leave your party to go find God. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you had Beast Tongue and got a monster unit to maximum faith? Of course you haven't. No one has.

I gotta hand it to whatever advertising firm Informa hired to make these, there really is something almost poetic about GDC's advertising being "an AI-looking depiction of an industry staple being destroyed with no clear elaboration of what comes after." Masterclass in unintentionally nailing it.

it’s a real shame that the obsession with “canon” and wikipedia-ification of fiction has people playing choice-based games like they’re a problem to be solved rather than a series of choices you have to stand by.

This is probably the line I was most interested to hear voiced. It's one of my favorites in the game, and IMO it gets to the heart of Ramza's entire character.

So I'm running into a familiar problem wherein I want to capture every single little fucking thing, but also. This whole exchange just needed to be captured.
